Response to Nation of Sanctuary Asylum Seeker & Refugee Delivery Plan

The Welsh Refugee Coouncil welcome the opportunity to share the views of individuals and families with lived experience of the UK asylum process on Welsh Government’s Nation of Sanctuary Asylum Seeker and Refugee Plan.

Please read our response which was collected from 37 individuals across Wales and through our recent research into people’s experience of destitution and workshops on hate crime, as part of the Asylum Rights Programme.

For over 25 years, we have been speaking out on behalf of those who are fleeing persecution, conflict and oppression. We empower asylum seekers and refugees to build new futures in Wales and help create a society where respect and equality for all are paramount.
